ESG ok, SDG gut: Im ersten Halbjahr 2022 haben meine Trendfolgeportfolios sowie die Portfolios, die sich an den nachhaltigen Entwicklungszielen der Vereinten Nationen ausrichten (SDG), zwar auch an Wert verloren, aber dafür relativ gut gegenüber Vergleichsgruppen performt. Das gilt besonders auch für den FutureVest Equities SDG Fonds. Anders als die meist OK gelaufenen globalen haben spezialisierte ESG Portfolios der Soehnholz ESG GmbH im ersten Halbjahr schlechter als traditionelle Vergleichsportfolios abgeschnitten. Dafür war deren Performance in der Vergangenheit oft überdurchschnittlich.

Deadline August: Ab August müssen AnlegerInnen aufgrund regulatorischer Vorgaben (MiFID II, IDD) nach ihren Nachhaltigkeitspräferenzen befragt werden. Auch künftig ist zunächst weiterhin die sogenannte Geeignetheit zu prüfen, speziell Renditeerwartungen, Risikokriterien, Zeithorizont und individuelle Umstände von InteressentInnen. Vereinfacht zusammengefasst muss künftig im Anschluss daran gefragt werden, inwieweit eines oder mehrere dreier Nachhaltigkeitsprodukttypen in Anlagen einbezogen werden sollen: Erstens ein Produkt mit einem ein Mindestanteil an ökologisch nachhaltigen Investitionen oder, zweitens, einem Mindestanteil an sozial nachhaltigen Investitionen oder drittens mit einer Mindest-ESG-Gesamtbeurteilung.

I started my first research-blogpost in July 2018. The first 60 posts are included in Das Soehnholz ESG und Impact Researchbuch. Meanwhile, I almost weakly summarize about 20 third party research publications which may be interesting for others as well. Most of the research has been read by only a few people before me, unfortunately. Please feel free to like/comment/share my blogpost (to enhance evidence based and responsible investments).

ESG bonus math: Many asset managers promote voting and engagement to change companies for the better and for positive impact. One of their goals is to promote the inclusion of ESG (Environmental, social and governance) targets in executive bonifications (e.g. „Klimaziele in die Vorstandsvergütung! Immer mehr Unternehmen erkennen, dass es bei der Bekämpfung des Klimawandels auch auf sie ankommt“ by Antje Stobbe and Harlan Zimmerman in Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, April 26th, 2022, who describe the problem of missing incentives very well).
